Reaching the LEARNER
Part 4
I’ve just had to run
from a helicopter
gunship and I’m in a
dumpster with a kid
who smells of vomit
and junk food.
Life could be better.

2. It’s all gone.
Everything’s
gone.
Agency hit
squads. This
kid’s just not
worth the
budget.

3. They could have
sent a security
guard with a
night stick…
You wanted us
dead for a little
hand-job. What
kind of cop are
you?

4. …but they
sent me.
Asshole. I had
a life this
morning. Now
look. Now look.
They sent
me.

5. So what are you
going to do
about it.
Not just
expendable.
Disposable.

6. They weren’t
after you, they
were after me.
Then you really
do owe me.

7. If you hadn’t
come I’d…
I’d...
…be sharing a
shitty
apartment with
a dead junkie..

8. Instead I’m
sharing a dumpster
with a cop with a
price on his head.

9. You should have
left me to die.
Shit.

10. You got people?
You got family?
No.
You sure?

11. Sure I’d never tell
you. You owe me
remember.

12. OK, Kid, what’s
your name?
……
I can’t just
call you Kid.
Why
not?
Didn’t
anybody give
you a name?

13. C… Chrysanthemum.
I’ll always hate them
for it.

14. Well they gave me ??
a reason. C’mon, ???
Kid. Let’s get
outta here before
the cleaners
arrive.

15. The
Agency?
We do government
work. We work out
what needs to change,
we gather evidence to
convince the political
classes. Then we
make it happen.

16. Like I said,
cops.
To help people like
you pull themselves
out of the hole
they’re in. Get a
better life.

17. Make us more like
you. Cheap cops.
Class cops.
…. …

18. See. You’re
trying to turn me
into a cop.
A cop called
Chrysanthemum?
Surely HR have policies
about that sort of thing?
